That, and I think my grandma used a trick. She'd let me out in the wild, but the next meal was never more than 2 or 3 hours away. This limited how far I could roam without feeling like it did. You wouldn't just skip a meal when you're 6 or 7. Not when everything's so delicious! At home, in the city, it was similar. Sure I could do whatever I wanted between school and when my parents came home 3 hours later. But there's only so much you can do in 3 hours.
